genericnumber1 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Most things with specific permissions deals with something call ACL (Access control lists), but are a fairly complicated topic when you get to the lowest level of it. The data structures typically deal with integers representing permissions and utilizing bitmasks to check these permissions. Unfortunately, since you're new, which is no big deal since we all were just starting out at some point, it would probably be pretty scary. If you really want to look into how real systems do it, or if you're feeling adventurous, you can google "Access control list" or "ACL". You could also check out Zend Framework's ACL class: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.acl.html . edit: broken link, silly period.

genericnumber1 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Well you can also do that. There are probably an infinite number of ways you can implement access control; I was merely pointing out the method most used in large systems.
